Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) agents arrested Kevin Michael Morrison, 68, of Macclenny, on eight counts of possession of child sexual abuse material. Morrison is a retired law enforcement officer and former church photographer and youth leader. He holds a law enforcement instructor certification.
The investigation began on May 26, when FDLE received a cybertip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) regarding an internet user uploading child sexual abuse material. Through investigative techniques Morrison was identified as the user.
On July 26, agents with the FDLE Jacksonville Regional Operations Center Cyber Squad and investigators with the Baker County Sheriff’s Office, conducted search warrants at Morrison’s residence and his place of employment where agents found digital files of child sexual abuse material.
Morrison was booked into the Baker County Jail yesterday on a $300,000 bond. The case will be prosecuted by the Office of the State Attorney, Eighth Judicial Circuit.
